Mother's Day

Its a Day I hate because I miss you sooo.!
Its a special occasion in Church tomorrow and even though it'll be such a beautiful experience, it'll sadden me.
I long for those Sabbath days when I used to run home from Church to you.
I miss the smell of your home made soup cooking on the stove.
I miss my sisters all nattering away in the back ground. Oh for those wonderful days.
I love you mum, I always will, be sure and have a great Mother's Day up there xxxxI'm sending you my love xxx

Mother's Day

Hi Mummy,
Happy Mother's Day too you!
Its the one day of the year that I really dread going to Church. So you've guessed it, I never went to Church this morning. Means I missed receiving my Mother's Day flower from the Church, but Whatever!
Why I hate Mother's Day, because it reminds me of you and you are not here to send a card to or bring my flower home to.
It reminds me of the Mother's Day you knelt at my feet and called me Mother. Never has anyone in the History off time ever received such a Mother's Day gift from anyone.
They couldn't- but I received it from my own mother.
It as always reminds me of Andrew, he was never there for me at Church when the flowers were given out, it pained me so to sit and watch whom would go forward to receive my flower.
Most times it was either a missionary or someone from my home teacher's family. OoH THE PAIN OF IT.
Just once it would have been nice to receive my flower from the hand of my son.
Mummy I remember you telling me that when you died, you had one request to ask our Heavenly Father, and that was for one look back at our Andrew to see how he turned out.
Don't look back Mummy! Don't look back! Look forward.
Look forward to the day when we will be reunited again but this time forever.
To have us all back once more, united in a family.
I hoope all the rest off them up there are giving you a really good Mother's Day, xx
Shirley must be happy to receive Stephen up there for Mother's Day.
Anyhow Mummy, I hope you really have a great Mother's Day up there, and I know Jacqueline will not let you down.
I must leave here mummy, but just had to say Happy Mother's Day.! I'll love you always xxx

Mummy

Hi Mummy,
Everyone is getting ready for Christmas down here. Everyone except me that is....What's wrong with me mummy, why do I feel like this?
Christmas has never been the same since we lost Mark. Why when that had happened Jean had just put up her Christmas tree, and it had to be taken down again. Poor Jean, why did she have to suffer like that Mummy?
I always viewed her as a mother of Angels, and thats quite a calling to hold down here on earth Mummy.
I need to go here Mummy, but I will come back to you soon. Give my love to daddy, and my sisters, remind them how much I loved them, even though I didn't show it at times. Love you all your little daughter Jennifer xxx

Mummy

Hi Mummy,
its getting close to our Mark's memory, so many of the family have followed him when he went. What happened to our Mark was so hard to take in, we felt that we were dealt with unfairly.
To lose a nephew like that seems so unreal, we find it so hard to accept Mummy, at least its a comfort to know that you all are together up there, hopfully watching over us down here.
I love you Mummy, it was hard letting go of you, but I guess it was all part of Heavenly Father's plan, even though it was hard to accept.
I feel so tired these days Mummmy, not much engery about. As Christmas is fast approaching, I know I should be making plans, and preparing, but my heart just isn't in it this year.
I keep listening to the Forgotten Carols, thay have a special message, they were beautifully put together, and I listen to them over and over again. It helps me remember the Birth of my King. Maybe this Christmas I have something to learn, something that perhaps Heavenly Father wants me to know or feel.
Christmas is such a sad time, and because of Daddy so is New Year, I get very teary eyed on the stroke of Midnight as I remember daddy, and how we all brought in the New Year together at home.
Must go now Mummy, you wouldn't believe me when I tell you that I have a classs to teach on Sunday in Church. Can you believe it? Its true!
Well till I nxt visit you again Mummmy, I love you all so very much, and I wish I knew back then what I know today, how differently things would have been.
God Bless all of you xxxxxx

Rememberance

Remembering you Mum.
It breaks my heart, but how selfish is that!
We had a lesson in Relief Society a few weeks ago. My friend gave the lesson, it was on 'Death'. My first reaction was close the book don't read it, But I did!
Now I am so glad I read that lesson, because I learned from it that you, up there have more time in Heaven then we do down here, and I thought to myself, how selfish could I be to deprive you lot up there of Heaven.
Tell daddy, I am missing him so much, we should be in Donaghadee now!
I am so eternally grateful for all you and daddy have taught me. Especially you Mummy. Thank you, you know I ponder these things in my heart.
I've a Big problem with one of your little granddaughter's.
She needs help. Watch over her Mummy, they don't deserve to go through what they are going through. Their cross is so heavy, please help her to bare it up.
I love you all so much,
Give a Big Sister Hug to all of them up there for me, [I know I said Big Sister, when I am only little, but I want them to have the biggest hug they can receive.
Love you always
Jennifer xxx
